This is the former Kenwood Tavern that really was only open for a year, but it cemented itself into…read morethe history of bars in Baltimore. I think the ownership is with the current Landlord. I'm not actually sure but the cocktails are good. I think the vibes when I went was off. Granted I did go on a weekday where it was pretty empty. I did really appreciate that they were chips of ice in the cocktail, cause it was a really hot day, so I made sure that the drink stayed really cold and delicious. Water is self service. They shift their menu a lot which I think is really nice for the community. The cocktails are on the pricier side they think they start around 14 or 16 which I think is a little too much for a local neighborhood bar.

The vibes are right and the bartenders were nice and chatty, the only reason this place isnt "my" place and doesn't get 5 stars is because they dont make a very good dirty martini and thats like base level. I asked for it extra dirty and I could barely taste the olive brine, I actually had to have him pour more in front of me lol. Also service was a little slow. So for grabbing a quick drink with the girls sure, but staying as a regular nah.

I tried a glass of the 2024 Karl Josef Piesporter, and it was sweet without being overwhelming. It has a laid back vibe, so there's no rush to leave. It's a great place to sit and chat for a while. They're dog friendly, though I will say the dog next to us got a little active with their friend, which was a bit distracting. Overall, it still had a quaint atmosphere. The service was on the slower side, but we weren't in a rush. Just keep that in mind if you're looking for a quicker stop because this spot might not be your best pick. I really enjoyed the wine and the waterfront views, so I'll definitely be back!

And I would say it was a bad start...now to give them a little credit the wine was good and we also received a free shot from the bartender. But other than that it was downhill. Now my man had already paid for brunch which we were completely disappointed because when I tell you it was bare!?! I've never seen a "brunch" that didn't come with pancakes, French toast, some type of meat to choose from etc. This buffet "brunch" had quiche, soupy shrimp and grits, smoked salmon, bagels, and Caesar salad. Are you serious!? If he didn't get the discounted tickets it would have costs $40/pp!? Then on top of that they add 20% gratuity and the bill came out the over $90!!! And this is with (2) glasses of wine and one cocktail he got. Now he didn't show me the check but how in the hell is that work $90!?! So I don't know if they charged us for the "free" shot!?! The restaurant inside was pretty nice and put together for a small venue size. The outdoor area was set up nicely to be shaded from the sun and see and feel the water and people watch. But it's a hell no for me...too overpriced and the buffet was trash.

My friends suggested that we dine here for restaurant week which was a sweet idea. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by the friendly hostess who took us to our seats. Then our waiter explained the menu and gave us some time to decided what menu we wanted to order from (Restaurant week brunch menu or regular menu). We chose the brunch menu. For the brunch menu we were able to choose a appetizer, entree, and a dessert for $35.00. Not too bad. For drinks I ordered PIRATE PRINCESS which was Ron del Barrilito 2 Star Puerto Rican rum, passionfruit, miso honey, lime, and togarash. It was a perfect balance of sweetness and a little bitterness. For food we ordered the shrimp and corn patties, and the pan roasted salmon. The shrimp and corn patties were delicious. It was packed with multiple flavors and it was seasoned really well. The pan roasted salmon was cooked to perfection. It was flaky, and seasoned very well. It came with Ramen noodles that I thought were going to be temperature hot however, they came room temperature which was fine. They were seasoned very well. The ambiance was very nice. It gave like 1950's/ 1970's vibe. Old marble tables, antique pictures on the walls. It seemed like the building use to be a house prior to it becoming a restaurant. It was a great time. If you are in the Hampden area I recommend giving this restaurant a try. I am looking forward to visiting again for dinner. Cheers!!

The breeze under the pavilion was the perfect accompaniment to the evening, and there was plenty of seating. I did feel like the food portions were a little small for the price, but I enjoyed the chicken and potatoes. I also wish more of the wine selection was available by the glass instead of only the specialty wines by the bottle because we ended up choosing from the house wine options. I did have a glass of sparkling wine, which was really good. I'm planning to come back with a friend to give it another try. It's considered a Baltimore classic, so I'd love to experience it again and get a little more context on what keeps people coming back.

It was a great experience. If you are looking for a chill relaxing wine bar then Fadensonnen is the place for you. I really liked that they not only served wine but also cocktails and beer. I will definitely be back soon. Cheers!

The food was great, portions SMALL. Prices above average our total was over $100 and we don't drink alcohol and just 2 of us. Appetizer, 2 entrees and 1 soda 1 juice. It's a splurge and I wish it didn't cost so much. Waiter could've been more attentive by checking on us - I still tipped 15% a small ding for calling her over twice and no one else was seated. Maybe they had a rush after 8pm ? No live music no customers came while we ate. Hidden expensive gem for a Saturday.

I made a reservation because I expected it to be crowded. We had to wait a few mins for someone to come and seat us. Upon seating, we were notified they were out of several items. There was 1 bartender & 1 waiter for the entire restaurant. The decor and music was really nice. We ordered drinks, they later said they were out of the non-alcoholic sangria, but we got another drink. The drinks were ok, there was an interesting taste to the lemon drop martini that I couldn't put my finger on. We had to flag the waiter for several things (napkins, plates, forks). He was nice but overwhelmed being the only person for all the tables. The Thai chili wings were amazing but there weren't many wings for $13. We both ordered the catfish meal. The catfish was delish, the greens were ok (needed more salt & vinegar but hot sauce helped). The yams were really good. The macaroni and cheese was not good at all. It had no flavor and no cream/roux. It was literally just melted cheese and noodles. The jazz night was just a solo sax player (she played a few great songs) but I was expecting maybe 2 or more musicians. I will not be returning.

We chatted with Kim and learned about the wonderful events she hosts. I can't wait to come back with our friends. A lovely place and ran by a very lovely person. The wine we had was very nice and reasonably priced. We will be back. Hopefully Ruthie will be there.

The gildas was super yummy - highly recommend if you're a savory girl like myself. Their salads are always incredible the caesar is no different.

Loved the presentation of the potato chips in the upcycled tin, too. The vibes in here are just so cozy and lovely. It feels like the type of place you'd find in Brooklyn somewhere but it's even better because it's in the middle of Station North, Baltimore.

Came here for Baltimore Restaurant week during brunch for the $25 bottomless buffet special. Its…read moreusually hard to get a breakfast buffet wrong but unfortunately this buffet experience was lackluster. They offered a variety of items: deviled eggs, scrambled eggs, chicken and waffles, beef and chorizo quesadillas, sausage, home fries, and French toast. They advertised fruit salad on the menu but they didn't have it out on the day we went. For starters, the food was lukewarm. Everything could have tasted so much better if it was warm. Even when they would refill the pans, everything was still not warm enough. The restaurant was not packed but they were slow to refill for the parties that were there. When we tried to go back for a second plate, most of the items weren't replenished and the line was getting longer. It was so bad that one group asked to pay for their drinks and leave because they weren't able to get any food. My option of each item: Deviled eggs- yolk mixture was on the drier side and bland Scrambled eggs- they were ok. Just needed to be warm Chicken and waffles- it was giving "chicken tender on eggo waffle" chicken was better than the bland waffle. It also didn't help that the syrup they had was cold and thick. It made the waffle (and French toast) colder and hard to swallow. French toast- the first batch was (with the exception of being cold) perfectly cooked and dusted with cinnamon and powdered sugar. The refill batches were so burnt and hard to chew and they didn't bother putting powdered sugar on them. Again, the cold syrup didn't help. Beef and chorizo quesadillas- they may have been a crowd favorite because getting a second serving was hard because they kept going quickly and took a while to replenish. They just needed to be warmer and served with sour cream. Home fries- great with the peppers and onions. Just need to be warmer. Sausage- my least favorite thing because it didn't taste like Sausage. It was very dry. Sadly, the food was a epic fail. This may be a great place for cocktails because the bartender mixed our margaritas perfectly. They had a Build Your Own Margarita menu with many different flavor options. I opted for the watermelon margarita with a Tajin rim. Delicious! My friend had a pineapple mango margarita with sugar rim and he was impressed also. The drinks earned them an extra star because otherwise, I think the food and the slow refilling of the buffet earned it 2 stars.
